Thunderstone Riesling 2024

I reckon this style of Riesling has been sitting in winemaker Tony Davis’ kit bag for many years and just waiting for the right time to bring it out. It’s Riesling with a different spin. There’s an intensity of flavor which you’d probably expect from this pretty warm vintage down in the Porongurup, but it has a lightness and finesse about it. I love its grainy, gravelly feel in the mouth with a mix of spices, apple, and wet granite. It’s a compelling combination. This is not a Riesling as you might expect, and it offers tremendous flavour definition and a sustained long finish. Really exciting style of wine.
